Abstract: | An analysis of the 0.5m and 1m sea level rise impact area was carried out to ascertain those areas that will be impacted, covering thematic issues such as transport and public buildings/entities. The main results show that whilst the road network will be impacted, public amenities will not be affected by such a rise, even when one caters for a 10m buffer extension to compensate for sea surges. The amenities will only be impacted minimally as most buildings falling within the zones pertain to private entities (commercial) and residential zones not analysed within the remit of this study. |
